Introduction<\/p>\n

Tourism is without a doubt a key industry within the Australian economy, representing about 2.5% of its GDP (ABS, 2013).A key component of any nation\u2019s tourism industry is usually the attractions, which play a significant part in tourism development. Australia is endowed with unique attractions that definitely form a key component of its tourism industry. This particular paper provides an analysis of the tiger island, a unique wildlife attraction site found at the Dreamworld amusement park, Gold Coast, Australia.<\/p>\n

An Overview of Tiger Island<\/p>\n

Tiger Island is a wildlife attraction located at the Australia\u2019s Dreamworld amusement Park, Gold Coast, Australia. The attraction exhibits various sites where various tiger species, including the Sumatran and the Bengal, live, swim as well as play (Dreamworld.com, 2014).<\/p>\n

Major Environmental Trends, Opportunities and Challenges Facing the Tiger Island<\/p>\n

According to Leask (2010), touristattractionsitessuchasthetigerisland are sensitive to various factors that bring about changes not only to the local entertainment spending but also the international tourists\u2019 arrivals. Consequently, owing to various adverse influences on the household discretionary income growth, the business demand has generally weakened over the last few years. According to IBISWorld (2014), the industry (the amusement park operations industry) is going through turbulent times driven by the uneven economic situations; the serious discounting to attract new tourists and the latest Queensland floods. Consumer spending is thus under extreme pressure owing to increasing housing costs with competition from the substitute entertainment industries and services also putting pressure on the industry operators leading to a reduction of not only margins but profits as well.<\/p>\n

Despite the industry having been negatively impacted on by the various adverse influences including the global financial crisis in the year 2009, the industry entered into a stage of recuperation in the year 2011 and the year 2012.Looking forward, IBISWorld (2014) highlights that there are hopes that market growth will be revived by the rising levels of the disposable incomes, the increasing consumer expenditure on leisure and the rising popularity of mass entertainment. A growing category of middle class households in Australia is also bound to drive the demand.<\/p>\n

Key target market <\/p>\n

According to Tsiotsou & Goldsmith (2012), a target market is basically a limited group of consumers or customers to whom a business directs its marketing efforts. The target market for the Tiger Island ought to be the international tourists. According to the IMETT Group (2012), latest statistics recorded between 1998-2009 indicate that the international tourists\u2019 percentage has been declining drastically from 31 percent during the year 1988 to about 18 percent in the year 2009, with the actual number of the international tourists decreasing from an approximated number of 320,000 during the year 1998 to about 237,900 in the year 2009.<\/p>\n

Market trends affecting that market<\/p>\n

According to IMETT Group (2012), with the rapid increase in the resident population of Gold Coast, Queensland, the expectation was that there would be a substantial rise in terms of the numbers of tourists visiting the available theme parks. However, the numbers have actually remained between 1 million and 1.5 million tourists annually a couple of decades ago. Growth in inter-state tourists has mainly softened owing to perceptions that nothing much has changed.<\/p>\n

While many Australians appreciate that there has been significant re-investments as witnessed through rides and other attractions at the theme park, they argue that a lot ought to be done to put the destination among their list of \u201cmust visit\u201d destinations. The decline of the international tourists, similarly, appears to be linked with the growth of newer theme parks within the Asian continent, especially those having international brand names.<\/p>\n

Summary Analysis<\/p>\n

Just like any amusement park, Tiger Island is also sensitive to various factors that affect consumer spending on amusement. However, there are hopes that market growth will be revived owing to rising disposable income levels, the increasing consumer expenditure on leisure and the rising popularity of mass entertainment.<\/p>\n

Recommendations<\/p>\n

Focus on Given Segments of Visitors<\/p>\n

Dreamworld amusement park appears to be having issues with the international category of tourist as seen through the low statistical percentages and actual numbers. The business ought to increase focus on marketing strategies relating to this particular group of visitors to attract an increased number.<\/p>\n

Provide a Range of Products\/Attractions<\/p>\n

It is inevitable that the tiger island provide new or more headline theme park products to increase its number of visitors coming to see its various attractions. These will not only be able to invigorate its tourist offering but will as well draw attention to it as a \u201cmust visit\u201d destination (Pikkemaat & Schuckert, 2007).<\/p>\n

Improve on Product\/Attraction Uniqueness<\/p>\n

It is inevitable that the tiger island focuses not only on offering products but also experiences and attractions that are clearly-defined in order to create uniqueness against its competitors.<\/p>\n

Destination image building <\/p>\n

Promotion and publicity of the Tiger Island ought to focus on its most striking features as well as associations and the image of this particular attraction not only be best built, but be strengthened as an ongoing process as well.<\/p>\n

Fine \u2013tune products <\/p>\n

The management ought to redefine its products to match the changing needs of the ever-dynamic tourism market (Pride et.al, 2007).<\/p>\n

Conduct regular Research<\/p>\n

This is very important as it not only examines the product and services experiences of the consumers but also provides direction as regards what ought to be done to the business.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/p>\n

The above report has generally provided an analysis of the Tiger Island including the major environmental trends, opportunities and challenges facing this business; its key target market and marketing trends affecting the market.<\/p>\n
